The Beekeeper - Tori Amos

Flaxen hair blowing in the breeze

It is time for the geese to head south

I have come with my mustard seed

I cannot accept that she will be taken from me

«Do you know who I am?»

she said

«I'm the one who taps you on the shoulder when it’s your time

Don’t be afraid, I promise that she will awake

Tomorrow somewhere, tomorrow somewhere»

Wrap yourself around The Tree of Life

And the Dance of the Infinity of the Hive

(Take this message to Michael)

I will comb myself into chains

In between the tap dance clan

And your ballerina gang

I have come for the beekeeper

I know you want my, you want my queen

Anything but this

Can you use me instead?

«Do you know who I am?»

she said

«I'm the one who taps you on the shoulder when it’s your time

Don’t be afraid, I promise that she will awake

Tomorrow somewhere, tomorrow somewhere»

In your gown with your breathing mask on

Plugged into a heart machine

As if you ever needed one

I must see the beekeeper

I must see if she’ll keep her alive, her alive (Call Engine 49)

I have come with my mustard seed

«Do you know who I am?»

she said

«I'm the one who taps you on the shoulder when it’s your time

Don’t be afraid, I promise that she will awake

Tomorrow somewhere, tomorrow somewhere

Maybe I’m passing you by, just passing you by, girl

I’m just passing you by on my way, on my way

I’m just passing you by, but don’t be confused

One day I’ll be coming for you"

I must see the beekeeper
